The smuggling network of Ota Tulačka

Dostupné v: English | Česky

After the communist coup, Milada Pabiánová's father Ota Tulačka created a prominent smuggling network. It included the smuggling of major figures such as Col. Alexander Hess, the commander of the 310th Fighter Squadron of the Royal Air Force, Ivana Tigridová, and Chancellor to President Beneš, Jaromír Smutný. Tulačka worked in Prague, where he arranged and prepared the transfers. Another member of the group from Kdyně would take the fugitives from Prague to the border village of Všeruby. From there they were taken across the border by members of the police force who collaborated with Tulačka’s network. The operations encompassed a great risk for everyone involved. In fact, some of the same police officers that assisted in the transferring of fugitives were also involved in the so-called "Kámen" operation, the cover-up operation which carried out the arrests of citizens for crossing the fake border of Czechoslovakia and Germany.

Milada Pabiánová, née Tulačková

Milada Pabiánová was born on June 1, 1936, the eldest daughter of an official of a laundry in Kdyně, Ota Tulačka. After the Communists took over power in 1948, Ota Tulačka arranged a major smuggling network. In September 1949, the State Security arrested Milada’s father and in May 1950, he was sentenced for life by a state court for the crime of high treason and espionage. Tulačka was placed in prisons in Pankrác, Valdice, Leopold and Mírov and was released on an amnesty in 1964. Milada completed an apprenticeship as a locksmith and took a part of her studies at a school of engineering. However, she had to terminate her studies prematurely and had to get a job in order to help her mother to feed her little brothers. From 1955 until her retirement in 1991, she worked in the Kdyně engineering works. She married Jaromír Pabián, who was, like her father, a political prisoner sentenced for smuggling people across the border.

Všeruby, památník

Dostupné v: English | Česky

Památník obětem železné opony se nachází mezi obcemi Všeruby a Hájek u benzinové pumpy, nedaleko státní hranice. Památník vytvořil sochař Jiří Šlégl pro Konfederaci politických vězňů Domažlice. Jedná se o seskupení několika balvanů, které symbolizují zápas proti totalitnímu režimu. V jejich středu je umístěna schránka se seznamem obětí železné opony. Na památníku je vytesán nápis: „Na paměť těch, kteří v letech 1948–1989 při přechodu hranice položili životy. Političtí vězni Domažlice.“ Monument slavnostně odhalil účastník druhého a třetího odboje gen. Josef Buršík dne 28. 9. 1996. Každý rok v září se zde koná pietní vzpomínka.
